I have a question about Making Sure the Correct HAL is Installed:

I am getting "Windows could not start because the hal.dll file is missing or corrupt" with Windows XP Home I can't fix this because Windows will not start again from the CD. I expected it to try to install with the XP CD in my CD tray I can get to safe mode using F8 but then none of the options work and I just get the error message again. I seem to be in a loop with this with no way out What's the XP route for formatting the disk and starting again???
